1994 Map of Handy

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

The Uwharrie National Forest anchors the southern landscape of this mid-1990s survey, where the Uwharrie River meets the northeastern reaches of Badin Lake. The terrain is defined by a network of rural settlements and agricultural crossroads such as Handy, Complex, and Loflin, interspersed with numerous community anchors like Siloam Ch and New Hope Ch. Notable elevations including Pinson Hill and Chapel Hill rise above the drainage basins of Cabin Creek and Loflin Creek. The map documents a deeply established rural social fabric, evidenced by the high density of country churches and the Salem Ch Cem, alongside later developments like a Golf Course and the Denton Airport Ch. This geography marks the intersection of three counties—Davidson, Randolph, and Montgomery—reflecting a transition from managed forest lands to settled Piedmont hillsides.
